Price by mail, 75 cents per THE LATE EMBEZZLEITENT When will American papers learn to tell the truth in all cases? Here in Philadelphia a Man named Thomas Hi(sell has been commit ting anoutrageous swindle on his partners in business and others, and has absconded. He has_long been known to be a man of bad character in many ways, and yet one paper says he has been highly esteemed by all who' knew him; another that his name has been heretofore without a blemish ; and there are re marks of similar tenor in other papers. The early history of this man Hilsen is not 'very 'well luinwn. He 6.rae. to Philadelphia twelve or fifteen years ago—perhaps_ earlier. He was a German by birth, but he spoke English, French and some other languages flu ently. Making himself known to merchants and manufacturers engaged in ~.the_ wool _trade he showed remarkable knowledge of the different varieties, qualities and grades, and of their respective values. Ile soot obtained plehty to do as a wool-broker, and finally, with 7 the ald'or capital :ftirnislied - by partnerd - , - set - up the house of Thomas Nilsen & Co. This house did a large business, especially during the war. llilsen grew rich, set up a luxurious bachelor establishment ou Washington Square; went to Europe once or twice, and cam& back with numerous really fine pictures, with which he covered his walls; drove fine horses; paraded on his shirt-bosom and on his hands large dia monds; dressed his mistress in a showy way ; made her, as well as himself, a five-share stock holder in tU - Xc -- adeany of - Music, and - brazen y brought her every opera night into the choice and exclusive department of that privileged class. He was a plausible,. agreable fellow ; who liked to entertain young men= at his= house or his-club. He had traveled extensively, and could talk well of what he had seen. It was known that he had left a wife in Europe, and he made no secret of his disreSpect Or woman, and his disbelief in female virtue. He never had, or professed to have, any attachment to this country, and the conclusion of his career shows that he only waited here till he could earn or steal enough to make him independent for life, to go back to Europe. All of his valu ables were sold or sent over there some time ago, and now he has followed, with the funds of his partners and others who trusted him. The particular crime with which he bas crowned his career in Philadelphia was not an _ticipated. by those who knew him. But re calling his other traits of character, they are surprised that they were not prepared even for it. To talk of such a man as having been es teemed or respected is foolish as well as wrong. THE INDIAN APPROPRIATIONS The Senate and the House were unable to bring to an amicable conclusion the quarrel over the question of the right of the former to make treaties with the Indians. The parties to this foolish contest, however, were wise enough to perceive that any further delay in. making the Indian appropriations would pro bably involve the country in another war, of o in enormous expense. Mr. Dawes therefor' devised a plan by which the money should b, voted, while the House technically refused it surrender its position upon the subject. lit proposed and secured the passage of a resolu tion giving to the President the sum of five millions of dollars, to be expended among the Indians in accordance with his judgment. This vote certainly is a high testimonial to President Grant. It proves that the House has perfect faith in his integrity and gOod sense; and we are sure the people of the country share that feeling to the fullest extent. We regard this action ,of the 'House with satisfaction, not because it is 'just what should have been done ; fop it would have been very much better if the money had been cent to the Indi ans through the usual channels; but because ft was evident that unless some such compro mise as this had been effected, the money Would not have been voted at all. Of course, Presi dent Grant will immediately apply the whole • arnotuat to the fidlihnent of the treaties which ale negotiated by the Senate; and we shall thus deprive the Indians of the right to accuse us of bad faith, and perhaps prevent hostile demonstrations. When the appropriation was made, the members of the House fully under stood that this course would be pursued by the President, and they virtually acknowledged the right of the Senate to make Indian treaties, by providing funds to meet the obligations im posed by the treaties. Under. such circum- stances we du not see that the House has Made its position in the controversy with the Senate any stronger, or that it has accomplished any thing for its cause but the imposition of an arduous and responsible duty upon the Presi dent. The people of the country will rejoice, however, that the appropriltion has been Made in any shape. The neglect of Congress in this matter has been a fruitful cause of trouble upon the plains, and it has covered us with the shame of having failed to fulfil our most sol emn engagements. . . In Conadaigna,yesterdayithree Perilous ver - e fourid.guilty of. breach . 0 the neutrality laws, and two of them were sentenced to two years' imprisonment, and the other to imprisonment for one year. Our only regret in this matter is that, the punishment is not more severe ; but as it is,we sincerely hope the President will stead ltendly refuse to exercise his authority, either to May b.rdon these fellows or to shorten.the term of not in' h. -,.. - Isonment. It is about time some sacred Anse of religione to.demonstrate to these more firm. ni the organization to which they belong, that our. laws cannot be violated with impunity, Sut. that offenders will be pun t .- ished,no matter whetheitheir plea is patrioticrn or some haserMotive. If Andrew Johnson ha acted with as much boldness .and impartialitY as President Grant has displayed, the Fenian. raid which occurred during his administratio4 wonld have been the last, . That valiant warrior Gen. O'Neil is yet to be tried. As be was the prime mover in the• re cent assault upon Canada, he will deserve the extremest penalty provided for by the law.; and we hope the judge who sentences him will have sense enough to impose it upon him. He is not likely to do much harm to Canada or to Great Britain, even if he is suffered to "go at large; but it is not a sufficient excuse for his crimes; that he was too cowardly to perpetrate them to the fullest extent when he had undertaken the task. The (Ecumenical Council by a vote of 450 to 88 has declared the Pope to be infallible. Now that it is determined finally that the clog ma-is to be promulgated, it will be interesting OD conjecture what the eighty-eight bishops and cardinals who voted against the scheme are go ing to do about it. Many of these prelates de clared in debate that the theory of infallibility could not be reconciled to their conscientious convictions. They did not belieVe that the Pope possessed or could possess such extraor dinary power, and they opposed the, promulga- tion of the dogma because it seemed to do violence to the growing spirit of liberty, and because they feared it would give grave offence to their people.' We do not pereeive how such men 'as' Strossmeyer, Cardinal Schwartzen burg, the Bishop of Savannah and the Bishop of St. Lonii, after their demonstrations against the dogma, are going to offer it to their people and instruct their clergy to preach it as a neces sary article of faith. If they accept the simple vote of the COUnCil as a direct"manifeitatiOn of tie rurine will, they have much more credili than they are commonly credited with, and a very great-deal more than the liberal Catholics among their congregations,. The country will learn with satisfaction that the Senate has at last voted , to Mrs. Lincoln a pension of three thdtsand dollars a year. The delay in this matter, and the remarks made upon it in the debates in Congress, have been shameful. The question was not, What are the petuliarities of Mrs. Lincoln, or what have been her actions in the past ? It was proper that Congress should consider only her present poserty_, and the-fact that she, was reduced to want.hy a crime which filled the world with horror, and deprived.this nation of a great and good -man, whose _offence .was_thatihe.served his country devotedly and . well. A handsome pension should have been given to Mrs. Lin coln immediately after her husband's death ; but it is better she should have it now;. even after all the cruel words that have been uttered against her, than that this people should be covered with . the disgrace of having neglected to provide - for the - widow of the man whose memory is honored more than that of any American except Waphington. In our inside coludans to-day will be found an interesting record of the discovery in this city of the first Book of Common Prayer published in America. It was issued by Wil liam Bradford, the enterprising printer,iu 1710. Although the scheme of publication was known, from the records of Trinity Chuch, N. V., which intrusted forty pounds to Bradford for the purpose, no copy of the work was recog nized as being in existence, and it was not cer tainly known to have taken finished and suc cessful form untilthe discovery of the copy now the preperty of the Historical Society iu this city. Bradford's enterprise iu issuing this prayer-book— ; which never came out in any other American form so long as our common wealths were colonies—is justified by the dis covery of an actual example of this almost mythical book ; and an interesting fact in the early history of our literature is developed by the correspondence we cite. The Age, this morning, affects a great deal of indignant concern for the trade of Philadel phia, because the EVENING BULLETIN ob jected to watering the compliment to the New York Seventh Regiment by putting it on a level with an ex-rebel regiment, the Maryland Fifth.. Suffice it to say that if the trade inter ests of Philadelphia had been committed to the Age and its friends at the time when the Maryland Fifth earned Its celebrity, We should have no trade now to concern ourselves about. No newspaper ever labored more consistently and persistently for the . trade of Philadelphia than the EVENING BULLETIN, and our mer chants are not likely to be bamboozled by any such absurd distortions of the truth as that with which the Age amuses its readers this morning. • SUMMER BOOKS. How they ever got along at Capua and Syharis without the support of Victor Hugo,. Thackeray and George .Saild, almost Passes conprehension. We modern lotos-eaters im peratively demand our literature of the season, curling out from the press in cool leaves of ,yellow, fresh and novel as the dewy news paper of morning—irresponsible, not to be saved and carried home, but divisible, share able with a friend who wants the beginning while you want the. denouement, and there fore cheap enough- to be shorn relentlessly through the cover like a ripped banana. Such are the pages for the warmth of our Julys pages to be read desultorily, al fresco," breezes waiting to turn every leaf of the book over ;" pages that harmonize with the easy luxuriant growth of out-of-door nature, and can make you forget to put your eyes out over the blind ing sea : " only to hear the far-off sparkling brine, only to hear were sweet, stretched out beneath the pine." .Obedient to that beneficent order of nature which, among other things, places groat ice houses near great mill-dams, publishers follow a useful law of being that impela theiii, at about this season of the year, to effloresce in a whole foliage of light and felicitous literature, after whluli• : tlmy closci'lisiness. for the sum mer, wander about chuckink pebbles, unre. cognized among the rest of us, or sailingiaun tily over the Atlantic on airy voyages of dis covery for -new geniuses. Let us see what we can discover of succulent among the latter growth they have put forth, First of allis "Lothair,"hardly withered yet, idrily huddedToetli by Appleton iu a cover of yellow; the old Jewish color. 'Weeks since - has "Lothair," though still vital to many a reader, had his day in these columns, his day of liberal quotation and humble comment. We but revive him this evening Co remind PH.TLADELP:IIIA EVENING BULLETIN,YRID:AIY, JULY 15,1870. the reader of two allusionsi of a prophetic no r ture, pointedly impinging on Disraeli and his glittering style. First, let us 'not, while'relisli big the severities of Blacktcood and the Fort nightly Review as against the author, forget to read once more ,the more genial ridicule of Thackera.y ; we may find it in the new Boston edition of his-Miscellanies; there,among the "Novels from truinent Hands," under the parodied name Godlingsby, shall we read a travesty of Disraeli's Asiatic prose, so telling, bright andirresistible that it would seem as if whole chapters of the recognizable essence of Disraeli had been bottled up in a single para graph of the attar. The other allusion we wished to make was taken from Carlyle. It is difficult to fancy the sage of Chelsea read ing "Lothair ;" yet, to dip once more into the '"French Revolution" and recall his criticism of the Figaro of Beaumarchais, would one not think that he was contemptuously re garding this arid and shining performance? "Smailsubstanee in it (says Carlyle,accurateiy enough of Figaro, but preeminently of "Lo t hair ") thin wire-drawn intrigues, thin wire- drum n sentiments and sarcasms • a thing lean, barren ; yet which whisks and winds itself, as through .a wholly mad universe,. with a high-sniffing air; wherein each, as was hinted, which is the grand secret, may 'see some image of himself and of his own state and ways. Recovering from this novel of -Disraeli's- - from what.poldwin Smith calls his mere" No Popery crt, on which to ride back into power,'!—turn we to a better plotted,_ better felt work of art, " Man and Wife,!' by. Collins. We receive our copy from Turner,lia one of Harper's cerulean octavos, with loose-meshed but spirited English illustrationS. An interest almost pensive attaches to this and the future work of Mr. Collins. " Man and Wife,'? just finished as Edwin p roost "-wastompienoipg, must have been one of the last-read manu scripts on Dickens's study-table, and one of the latest to receive his friendly and cheering criticism ; and then Collins was aliterary son, and a marital stepson, to Dickens ; and will probably arrange the 'final fragments of the Mystery!' decoroifsly for examination of - tha~vorld. And in ' A3anand Wife;' if we are not mistaken, more than in . any 'previous plot by Collins, we see a -humanitarian touch palpably communicated by the friend of all Siveet Clarifies - and generous:retorms. Collins, whom we have known altogether as the shaper of elaborate calculated plots d tit 'Edgar Poe, with much oily machinery in the dungeons beneath the stage, and much sharp pyretechny in the side-scenes, has'ndapted his present work, with but little loss of his customary effect, to the reformation of legal abuses. First, in the case of the mother .of the heroine, comes an example of the inefficiency 'of the Irish marriage law; the lady, having been united to her husband,by an Iristi'priest within airf , his conversion te - her the Roman Catholic, is not, it appears, his legal wife, and suffers the penalty of her trti-t and ignorance. Her dauglateri:-.-become -- governess, suffers a converse penalty. Pos sessing, as it happens, a written promise from a villain that he will be her husband, and the parties staying in Scotland,it appears that one of the confused mess of marriage -laws in the land of cakes would put her -in his power as a wife; yielding to which, she acknowledges his authority, which be_ is _going__to use_ to murder her when the curtain drops. A minor point is meantine made of the pro perty-laws over married persons in Great Britain ; an excellent working woman, .Hester Dethridge, is persecuted by a worthless hus band, who wastes- her property and absorbs her earnings; and the worthless law is revealed up as powerless to separate her from him, or protect her industry to her own advantage, All these rc: show( !.p with the bard edg.

But is all this really the result which a purely physical culture would nroba 7 bly have upon a not very vicious nature Would it have seemed natural to Socrates, ath lete and philosopher, or to Sophocles, athlete aid dramatist? Dare we admit that an ani mal education has a more dire effect in cultivating selfishness and suppressing the charities, than the chop-logic of the schools? Collins, however, has al -ways been a vindictive public enemy of British sports, from the time when he wrote the Idle Apprenticed' with his father-in-law; and in the croquet, volume he even ventures to satirize croquet, the heaven-seat expedient. by which we hope the girl of the day is to - ,•ecover her constitution. It is no use, how ever, picking characters to pieces which can hardly stand alone of themselves. Would any conceivable being,' for instance, trust, as Geoffrey does, the details of a murder to a person like Hester, just proved by her own words to be in all cases but one a singularly rigid •moraliSt ? And would a person Of Hester's-force' of mind allow herself to go crazy before recovering the, criminating document now andlif all - jterntty lying to her discredit with the banker ofthe-Delamayn family;' The heroine is an inexplicable person, all charm and, sensibility, who first lets herself Le very grossly betrayed by aheavy young idiot, and then, during all, the time she keeps the 'stage, becomeS . an „angel of ' purity and a seraph of intelligence, to marry, at last, a hob bling old patrician gentleman with one leg clean sunk in the grave. A third story,. of the pepperiest character for midsummer, assaults us from the ranks at the bookseller's ; it is Reade's "Put Yourself in His Place." We receive, among other edi tions (through Tutner), the neat,small, cheap issue oilfields, Osgood & C 0.,. uniform with the household edition. His two late letters, to this firm and to Sheldon & Co., appear side by side, utterly distradting our attempts to solve the moral right of publishing him in America; his note of 1869 " hopes" that we will all look for the Boston imprint in buying bis works ; that of 1870, to .Sheldons, quotes the liberality of that firm, and oracularly hopes thatother publishers (including_ these' whose imprint W 3 are to look for as a shib boleth) will forbear to reap where they have not sown. 'Among these claims, we will only venture to whisper that the BOston imprint, though not illustrated, is the cheapest and prettiest AS for the novel, it is RClLde' all over, but with more contempt for the pru riency. of his, readers, even, than usual; , a fearful explosion, deluge, or What-not catas troptic is flung to Lim at regular and caleula- We intervals all through the book ; until he wonders what is the advantage of this spas-, modiestyle over the unpresentable spasms of the Ledger romancers.' Thatrades-union out rages are the raison d' 'etre of the present effort, .and are shown,,np - lititkr the= same sting, this same clamor, the same sense 'of we:axe-all going-twriths-togetber, as "mist ',before ia fliend .

Several members attempted to ,pass pass their special bills, but objection was made on the ground that no quorum was present, and the ayes and nays were ordered on a motion for a call theaioifse.

He agreed with Mr. Dawes that the House should surrender no rights. He also agreed :is to the doubtful propriety of the treties,but from the beginning of the Government to the present day treaties had been made with the Indians, and he we could say we had kept them. Three years ago the House ordered these treaties, and named the Commissioners to make them. Ho was opposed to placing so large au amount of money in the hands of the President. On the same principle we might give hum three hundred millions and tell hire to run the government.' - Mr. Paine said it was the desire of the Senate to bind the House to its right to make treaties nith the roving bands of Indians.
